Debbie Guzzi Poet Limerick

Always Wear Clean Underwear

There was a cold man from Connecticut
whose hygiene showed he didn't know etiquette 
if he'd left me alone
he'd still have his own bone
That cold hearted blighter from Connecticut.

Robert Pettit January 20, 2012 at 5:29 PM Concerning this man from Connecticut, did this poor fellow have his boner cut? This was not at all great. He deserved better fate. That was enough to get him in a rut. You give good advice in limerick form Debbie. Debbie Guzzi January 21, 2012 at 7:07 AM of course your Debbie would NEVER do such a thing..and I guess it's not even funny :( but the underwear part is funny!
